The Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles wants voters to be prepared for this year’s elections, with the spring primary less than a week away.
Wisconsin voters are required to show photo identification at the polls, such as a driver’s license, passport, or a state, military, tribal or student ID card.
Voters without one of those forms of identification can obtain a free state photo ID card by providing proof of name and date of birth, identity, Wisconsin residency, Social Security number, and citizenship or legal status.
Residents can apply at DMV service centers across the state, including locations in Sturgeon Bay and Algoma.
The reminder comes as some Wisconsin voters prepare to head to the polls for primaries that will narrow the field ahead of the spring election on April 7.
Only one primary is scheduled in Door and Kewaunee counties on Feb. 17.
In Door County, District 17 Supervisor Bob Bultman, who represents parts of Baileys Harbor and Jacksonport, is being challenged by Dave Smith and Mariah Goode for his seat on the Door County Board. The top two candidates will be on the ballot in the spring election on April 7.
